Gwe: Solo cup grow off : 2020

[SoOrbudgal]

OJ you talking about solo cup? Are you doing solo cup?

 

[Mr.furley]

I went right into the coco mix.

 

[DingusKhan]

That was so cool, scrolling through your pics, watching your seedling grow real fast!

 

[Gingerbeard]

Say... uh... I see a lot of Solo cups growing with DWC into reservoirs. Don't roots grow out of the cup?

 

[NickyChicks]

Normally, yes but I modified my solo cup to hopefully not allow the roots to leave the cup.

Day 3,

 

[JohnEmad]

So my question is, how do you stop roots from growing through holes on any cup? I guess air pruning should work but I had a few roots growing partly out of my grow bags on the side so?

 

[Gingerbeard]

Got it. I either didn't see it in your last post or didn't use my x-ray vision. You're not the only one @NickyChicks.
I am about to harvest my Solo cup trial JohnEmad. Whatever the air pruning thing, it works pretty darned good! I have to water everyday. I've dropped the cup more than once and not a speck of soil fell out. The root ball is hard, hard, hard. Small plant, though. I'll be ecstatic with 2 grams. Might have an accident if I get 1/8 ounce.

I didn't think there was any such cutoff date to get started. Is this true Mr.furley , do we have to have something growing by 1/10/2020?

 

[NickyChicks]

*hits joint*
If you have x-ray vision and close your eyes, can you still see? 🤔

 

[JohnEmad]

Hope my drip system won't grow roots but we will see I suppose..Probably drop my one solo cup into the top of the 5 gallon pail fairly soon.

 

[Mr.furley]

SoOrbudgal
FunkyButtLovin thank you.
There is no cut off date to get started,
Cup Judging will begin around 4/10/2020 if you are going to compete

 

[DingusKhan]

The contest was over for me when I saw that bucket painted like a solo cup. Clear winner, that one. We don't stand a chance against a cup like that.

 

[DingusKhan]

Go Johnny Reb!

 

[FunkyButtLovin]

Ok that is what I thought, I was just making sure. SoOrbudgal had me worried.

 

[DingusKhan]

SoOrbudgal my order already arrived! Holy Moly!

So I have auto seeds if you need them to hurry up and get back in on this. They were out of Great White Shark and Super Dense, so he sent extra of the Pure Haze Auto fem along with my Sour 60 regulars. I can bring these with me to the office tomorrow if you want to come get them or peruse the rest of my seed stash.

Also my clones from the clone along are starting to actually get a little bigger, although roots are not yet visible out of the net cups or rooters. I have extras that I cut on New Years morning and should be ready to "cup" soon.
